Now I have these down as a dunlin and spotted redshank - but I'm not too sure about the spotted part!!

Thanks for your help

The Redshank is a juvenile in fresh plumage,all the feathers are paler around the edges,giving the bird a spotty look

Thanks guys - think I knew it was just a common redshank, but was hoping for a spotty!
